In the past few days I did nothing but collecting a massive amount of information, and mostly, introspecting.
I feel like I got 5 years older. -
My day has been alright so far.
It's about to reach the untimely, unfortunate climax, though.

@THE:
In the past few days I did nothing but collecting a massive amount of information, and mostly, introspecting.
I feel like I got 5 years older.I've done that before. Feels fulfilling, but instead of quenching the thirst for knowledge, it only makes you realize how much you don't know, hm?
Today was pretty crappy, work was mediocre. I realized today that I haven't had a ride home from work in like 2 or 3 weeks. I don't have a car, but one of my coworkers lives near me so she usually drove me home when we finished together. Lately though, she's been doing her best to finish up and leave early every time I work with her. Everyone else doesn't care to give me a lift, even if we finish at 11:30pm or later. I don't like asking for favours so I never ask, I only wait for someone to offer. No one offers. So I take the bus or a taxi if it's really late, like tonight.
Can't complain though, no one has an obligation to give me a lift so I can't be expecting anything, even if I live so close.Otherwise, i'm going through a low self-esteem phase, where I think that everyone thinks I look fat and ugly. Hopefully i'll get out of this soon, it's an awful mood.

I got rejected from UCLA today. And several of my good friends got in. Dunno how I feel.
T_T -
Today is depressing. With the disaster in Japan, I feel like it's almost a crime to be cheerful or happy. I tried to distract myself from worrying, but I got this guilty feeling and couldn't do it. I don't know what to do with myself…
-
me and my friend were sat on a sidewalk bench last night waiting for his ride home to arrive.
a car suddenly came zooming past, with 6 guys in the car, one of them sticking his head out of the sunroof.
"YOU'RE DEAD, YOU FUCKING WANKERS!" the top guy shouted.i didn't know how to react, but my friend was instantly up on his feet and shouted "GET FUCKED! :D" before they got out of earshot.
crazy bastard XD luckily they didn't turn around lol

'Anxious' is the word that could be used to describe my day. It's early afternoon when I post this, but it already feels like things couldn't get much worse, without somebody I know dying. Having slept only a few hours yet again, I am dead tired and I don't have any energy to do anything that might cheer me up. Even conversing and browsing the web is nearly too tiring. And as if that wasn't enough, the flu I had earlier this week is back. A sore throat and a blocked nose are two things I detest. Somewhat frustrating, as I can't do my homework due to sheer lack of energy. I am sick of being sick.
Having nothing else I could do, I have been following the situation in Japan all morning and it's depressing me. The footage is really agonising. Had I got any spare money, I would catch the first plane heading there and try to help people. Praying for them doesn't do much good. :sad:
! @metteminne:
! > somebody died you know? sad to hear , i hope you will be alright
! No, thank god nobody died. Sorry, I corrected my writing. It was a bit confusing..

I was desperately waiting for the new Rise Against CD that I preordered in January.
Turns out my CD is at the post office and now I have to wait till monday grgrgrgrgrgrrrrrrr
So. I downloaded it because I'm that unpatient >_>
Listening to it right now <3And I kind of fixed my debts problem. Next month everything will be good again~
And I send out some more applications last week. Hopefully this time I have some luck.
I will just remain positive. I'm sure everything will be better soon. -
I'm curious Nami, what job are you applying for?

Got some new footage in the form of filler images that set up the time and place of our movie. The director had a great idea for the beginning, but in the end all our efforts in making it happen fell short because we didn't have enough assistants. Plus the original idea of a continuous glide spanning over the hotel reception and restaurant would've required extensive lighting which we didn't have. Oh well, I'm glad they went to the hotel again and shot extra material so I can do a better job. Got the beginning to work somehow and made some further adjustments to the first scene.
However, just as I was moving to the second scene I had to take a break because two classmates had their news insert project on the same computer and those need to be ready by Monday. I wasn't going to be a prick and not let them do it, so I took my chance to finally do some overdue grocery shopping and writing reports for my teacher.
Tomorrow I hope I can at least get the second scene done and start on the montage. I'm gonna soil myself when our teacher will give feedback on my work on Tuesday. Hopefully he will have some good things to say…

I'm curious Nami, what job are you applying for?
just little jobs. like salesgirl in a supermarket or dishwasher in restaurants.
In September I will (hopefully) study as dress maker for 2 or 3 years :)
(But I have an own flat and bills to pay and the school costs something, too, so I try to make some money until september. From September or October on I'll work at the same place I worked last year around the time~ Nanu Nana, I think you know that, don't you? :)@metteminne:
good to hear you solved your debts
hope you get a job!
@MDL:

That's great to hear love I am so happy for you~!
Thank you guys <3

Heh, I hope you will find a job and can save up some money. It's good to hear that you have something greater in mind for your future, but I know those fashion schools are sometimes insanely expensive. Have you checked if you can apply for BAföG there? I know that helped me out quite a bit during my first semesters. Anyways, best of luck Nami

Took the SAT today. Flubbed the essay and only got half of it written. Killed my mood over the rest of the test. >_> I'm really not too happy now.
-
Today I had to get adapt to a sling, I could not play video games or go on the internet, at the beginning it was boring.

Man, I am damn tired right now. I've been so distracted and worried that I haven't even started on any of my homework even though I'm already like a week behind on assignments (I only missed two days but AP English gives you boatloads of work). More than that probably. Why is it so hard to focus?! It's not as though my teachers are gonna be like "Well, I guess we won't assign any homework because Japan is going through a severe crisis and you're upset."
I'm still sick and I seem to be going a bit deaf in both ears…. Antibiotics didn't do shit mainly because I wasn't really supposed to be taking them. <__< FTR I'm not House, my dad was the one telling me take 'em. It is very difficult to dissuade him from a course of action once he makes up his mind, and to him, my taking his prescription pills for a surgery he had awhile ago was okay. I shouldn't have let him have his way… I won't let him give me any more of it though. I took them in the past when I was sick and didn't notice any side effects, so I figured if they didn't help, they wouldn't harm me either. And then I took a few anti-allergy pills (really don't know why) along with it. Seems that my face has developed a rash on both sides and my throat is itching like crazy. fuuuuuuu why can't I break free of this vicious circle of unhappiness??!! bangs head repeatedly I disappeared from AP for several months because I was hoping to learn how to be a more positive and cheerful person!! Progress! It's what I'm not making!

PM–I'm pretty sure if you explain to your teachers that you have a direct connection to the tragedy in Japan in the form of your Grandmother, they will try their best to be understanding. Teachers are people too, right? Some can be assholes, but most will try their best to help.
-
Way to go Nami and Insider!
Nami, can I borrow some money now?
@Kistune: Sad to hear that, but it's not the end of the world, if that helps.
@Piratemarimo: Man, that's tough. If it helps, no bad times last forever, and I can personally tell you that staying positive just takes practice. You can do it. -
I managed to blow £1300 yesterday on shopping and plane tickets to Australia. Unfortunately the tickets aren't for me, though the mountain of clothes and stuff is, so all in all everything is feelin' good. Hopefully I'll feel the same later after checking my account balance….lol
Heya cuddles, nami, chrissi etc
edit: and bustercall
-
@ marimo : if your teachers are human they should understand that you have family there and cant concentrate very well because of that
and still sick , i really hope you get better, and try to think positivly and if it doesnt work talk with people about it
-
good luck to everyone having difficulties, i know you can pull through it.

I tore up my stress ball. :/
-
sorry to hear that.
what's so stressful for you that even the ball couldn't take it? -
I'm on a strict no-chocolate-diet for the sake of my skin.
It's only been three days and it's already a lot better (it wasn't that bad anyway), but I'm starting to feel withdrawal symptoms. -
maybe i should also then stop eating chocolate , my skin does act weird sometimes
and what was wrong with your skin?
-
Today when I woke up I felt weird. I looked in front of the mirror and realized I must have lost weight. I'm only around 130ish pounds though. This does not bode well.
-
@metteminne:

Well, it was unlcean. Nothing bad, but still. It annoyed the hell out of me.

Do you know why? Stress?
Whatever it is, I really hope it's nothing serious! -
-
@Nia:
Do you know why? Stress?
Whatever it is, I really hope it's nothing serious!I don't think it's been stress. I think it's moreso I've been forgetting to eat a lot recently. Which is nothing new.
What troubles me is that this is the first time I've lost a measurable amount of weight from my own forgetfulness.
Thanks for the concern though. I've talked to my parents and sis about this and I think I'll try to go on a McDonalds diet for the next few days.
-
My feet. They hurt.
I woke up today with a throbbing pain in both my calves and heels, which I suspect from shitty shoes for work. The second I get paid, I'm investing in some quality walking shoes. I can walk just fine, but sitting is when it really starts to ache.
And whoever invented the heating pad…I will have babies with either them or their descendants.
-
I. Hate. Writing. Papers.
I start to lose my concentration after about an hour or so and just want to do something else. But if I do go do something else I'll never get back to it.
-
Fucking stressful day. Besides trying to keep up with everything that's happening in the world, I have a shitload of studying to do and a lot of stuff to organize for a lot of people. I haven't even eaten yet.
-
gives Jay multiple mcdonalds vouchers
hopes Gyps gets those shoes soon
wishes luck to Sakon and Chocula and anyone else with stuff to doas for me i've been having a nice day today, which is helped by the fact the sun has been out in full force for the majority of this week.
sunshine promotes happy moods (unless it gets too hot for you) =]i went with my family to a jumble sale this morning and i got something for my DS (100 books collection) and some yugioh cards.
the yugioh cards were reasonably priced (20-50p) until i got to the back of the album, where there was a blue eyes white dragon for £4.
i decided to take it and a couple of other cards, and because i closed the album after retreiving the cards,
and because the guy didn't have the prices listed down anywhere else, he said
"how about £1.80 for them?" and i was like "sure :D"
so basically, i managed to get a steal ;D
that made me pretty damn proud of myself, take that how you will.
There was also a cat in the car park that rubbed against me and let me stroke it, which was nice.
until it put a paw on my leg and accidentally clawed me in the process lol.and when i got home, i had an awesome lunch consisting of warmed pizza-topped rolls and kettle crisps.
we also had chocolate milk available for the first time in ages. fuck yeah.Then i reached the 1 million points milestone on the bookworm game, and i'm still only on my first attempt lol, so this number will increase yet.
and now i'm currently watching the English FA cup quarter-final between Manchester City and Reading, and so far it looks like City are in for a semi-final clash with local rivals Manchester United. Looking forward to it =]

I just remembered that I spent a couple hours watching some episodes of Courage the Cowardly Dog on youtube with big bro yesterday. That was some good nostalgia… The beginning of the mask episode was creepy as fuck, especially given the fact that the two of us had somehow never seen that episode before. I'd even go so far as to say that it was the creepiest intro. lolol at the lesbian subtext at the end of it. "Friends forever" eh? XD It's hilarious what kinds of things you notice when you're older. We saw a mix of others too. I totally agree with brother, if Courage were a live action, it would be the scariest horror film ever. "Just try to imagine a human-sized insect giving people massages while sucking their blood."
I got some reading to do, but I think watching old-school cartoons is a useful distraction right now.
-
Have to get up at 6AM. I am sleepy as hell but I can't from the stress, from stupid thoughts entering my mind and from my neighbors playing some kind of guessing game and yelling and laughing as loud as they can. Somebody… :'( Make me sleeeep!

…Damn MDL !

puts chrissie together with trapped into a blanket and sings a lullaby
does it help?
and hope you can relax marimo

After having to edit a dance scene that really didn't have any coreography aside from leaning into each other and swaying around a bit, I instantly learned to respect editors who make dancing scenes in musicals and films such as Black Swan seem effortless and smooth. I didn't really like it at all and will probably have to edit it yet another thousand times before I'm fully satisfied.
Other than that I had a rather prolific day, managed to edit two scenes and a montage. Also finished my second school report.
Today when I woke up I felt weird. I looked in front of the mirror and realized I must have lost weight. I'm only around 130ish pounds though. This does not bode well.
Dude. One year ago I weighed more than you do now. I definitely agree on that McDonald's diet.
And whoever invented the heating pad…I will have babies with either them or their descendants.
I wore a heating pad once and it was wonderful. Made all my period pain go away without having to eat a single painkiller.
-
fuck, it happened again.
sigh, i wonder what the reason is for THIS one. -
Early today I went at my friend of 22 years, and I discovered (accidentally) that he still wear diapers.
I went to a convention of games with him
and yes … I could not even play a game (my arm in a sling) -

how much weight did you lose? i'm not an expert or anything, but i think you should try to eat more on a regular basis rather than skip meals, start losing weight, and then eat a feast. :P
also, i hate you for losing weight when i'm trying to get myself to stop pigging out so much. ):
Hahahahahahahahahaha.
You're just lovely, you know that? <3

Spent today hanging out with friends after loads of fun last night celebrating my birthday today. Eighteen years… Wow!
Also, off-topic, but what happened to the general discussion thread? The one with no specific topic, like how the Naruto thread used to be? I've been gone a few weeks and I don't see and I used to like lurking/occasionally posting.

baaaw I had to get reminded that the wonderful GD thread got closed again. Serious disappointment… I blame whoever it was that brought up the question of who should play you in a movie or whatever that shit was.
ANYWAYS, my family took me to Chaamps for a birthday dinner. Bleagh... it wasn't exactly horrible food... okay it was horrible. My meatloaf was like a fucking salt bomb. The appetizers and my bro's steak were just about the only decent items, but come on, no restaurant ever screws up the appetizers and steak. Because if you fail at those two things, you're not a restaurant. Shame that we didn't have room for dessert because it's the only thing that is truly properly done at Chaamps, even though one of their desserts is enough to serve four people (or one morbidly obese person if you wanna look at it that way).
